Køge North Station
The team has created a characteristic landmark for green mobility in the capital region of Copen- hagen. The main element of the design is a bridge combining Denmark’s most trafficked freeway with the existing local Copenhagen train line and the planned double-tracked rail line for high- speed trains. The bridge will be a new gateway to Copenhagen for the 90.000 people passing through the area daily, and a significant step on the commute for the expected 8.000 daily users of Køge North Station.
The interior of the pedestrian bridge consists of warm and inviting materials. Padded with wooden lamellae, the inside of the pedestrian bridge becomes a warm and welcoming area, giving commuters a tactile experience in an otherwise streamlined weekday. From the outside the pedestrian bridge is covered with perforated electroplated sinus steel plates, adding depth to the expression of the façade while also matching the materials from the surrounding infrastructural system.
